Re: Arrival
Six, I didn't see "The Arrival" but I saw "Sicario" and I agree with your assessment. I wanted to like that movie so bad. The subject matter and visuals in the trailer seemed to suggest it was my type of movie. It wasn't. There were moments in the film where you see the film it should have been or what they were going for. The entire end felt dumb to me. So every high-up in the FBI (whole government for that matter) caters to a Columbian hit man whose mission - other then revenge for his family - is to have the drug trade be back in Columbia's hand? The scene where he's forcing the lead character to sign an official report he/and his partner doctored made me think "huh?" Why would this guy care about bureaucratic procedure?
